Dental implants are the best solution for replacing missing teeth. However, getting dental implants seems impossible when you have no more teeth or are about to lose them. The thought of having implants to replace every tooth seems like too much.
The surgical pain and the healing duration also seem like a stretch. All-on-4® dental implants provide a practical solution to this problem. It is suitable for almost all upper and lower teeth. Here is a look at this solution.
What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?
They are a solution for replacing teeth that use four implants and an arch of teeth. They can replace the teeth in your upper or lower jaw. They are safe and practical, restoring function to your mouth.
Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants
There are several benefits you get from choosing these implants. They include:
Shortens Treatment Times
The treatment only requires four implants. It does not need several surgeries to replace each lost tooth. It shortens the treatment time, ensuring you do not have to spend months between surgeries and healing. Traditional dental implants may need several appointments before completing their placement. The surgeon can place the All-on-4 implants during the first appointment.
Saves You Time and Money
Since the process takes a short time to install, you will not spend much money. Traditional dental implants require several surgeries, and you keep paying for every surgery. They will cost you valuable time you could spend elsewhere. All-on-4 dental implants will take less time to heal, letting you revert to your daily activities as soon as possible.
Comfortable
Dentures are the only other device that would allow for a complete replacement of teeth. However, these can become uncomfortable. They can start slipping off or cause bone deterioration. They can also rub on your gums, causing inflammation. These implants will not click out of place or slip. They will not rub on your teeth, causing inflammation or wounds. This makes them a comfortable option.
No Need for Grafting
You can avoid bone grafting when you use these dental implants since the surgeon strategically places the implants. They place them at a 45-degree tilt to provide the ultimate support for effectively rehabilitating and restoring function. The doctor will avoid areas that have poor-quality jawbones. Doing this eliminates the need for a bone graft, which can be a painful surgery that takes time to heal.
Easy Home Care and Hygiene
It is easy to care for dental implants since they function like your regular teeth. You can brush them and take care of them the same way you do with your teeth. Maintain oral hygiene to avoid gum disease since it can lead to other dental complications.
Natural-looking
The implants look and feel like natural teeth. Thus, you can eat whatever you want. You will not feel self-conscious when speaking or laughing. They give you the confidence to go about your daily activities and excel at what you do. Losing teeth can be a traumatic experience that may affect your self-esteem, but All-on-4 dental implants give you an effective solution.
